Wind and solar power are two complementary energy sources for building a resilient electricity mix. Kallista Energy has therefore naturally diversified into solar power, and is developing new projects to rapidly increase its solar electricity production.<\/p>\n

Solar energy is booming worldwide. The price of solar panels has been divided by more than 10 since the 2001s, making solar one of the cheapest energies to install.<\/p>\n

Kallista Energy is developing ground-mounted solar farm projects:
\n– on artificial\/degraded land (former quarries, wasteland, industrial zones, etc.)
\n– on agricultural land with ‘agrivoltaic’ parks.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

In France, an <\/span>agrivoltaic<\/span> park is \u201ca solar power plant located on an agricultural plot of land that contributes sustainably to the installation, maintenance or development of agricultural production \u201d2.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Some advantages of solar energy: <\/h3>\n
\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
The sun is free;<\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
the energy required to manufacture and recycle a solar panel offset in 1 to 1.5 years;<\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
there are no direct CO 2<\/sub> emissions during the operation of a solar farm.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
a solar farm is perfectly compatible with agricultural activity;<\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
solar panels do not consume water during operation;<\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
a solar farm is reversible: the land can be returned to its original state once operation is complete; <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
degraded or artificial land (quarries, industrial or polluted sites, etc.) can be valorized with solar farms;<\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
100% of a solar panel can be recovered and 85% is recyclable <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Raising sheep under solar panels <\/h2>\n

More space, better grass quality, improved animal welfare, protection against the vagaries of the weather (drought, storms…). Discover the advantages of a photovoltaic installation located on the same plot as agricultural production with the testimonials of two farmers who have been raising their herds under solar panels since 2015.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
